It’s really hard to find the right words when the community loses someone as talented and kind-hearted as Sir Allen Jay Toledo. To many of us, he wasn’t just a photographer behind the lens, he was the person who captured our best moments and brought our favorite characters to life with such passion.

Sir Allen, your dedication to your craft and your kindness to everyone you met left a lasting mark on the cosplay community.

Thank you for the memories you captured and the friendship you shared. You will be deeply missed by the community.

Even though Connxt Anime Popculture is not based in Manila, the news reached us and it really hits hard. We are all so saddened by this as we share the same passion for anime and photography.

Our hearts go out to his family and friends during this incredibly painful time...

Salute Sir 🫡😔

Re-sharing this because another cosplayer’s life is in danger due to online bullying. This needs to stop.
Cosplay is about creativity, passion, and fun. It is NOT a reason to tear someone down. We are all humans behind the costumes, and words have real consequences.

Please remember:
-Being kind is FREE.
-If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all.
-Support each other instead of judging.
Let’s make the community a safe space again.

Please repost to spread awareness. Thank you.

Official Advisory from Arterion Philippines

We are aware of ongoing anonymous posts in the Facebook group Cosplay Market PH that target and defame cosplayers including some of our staff through body shaming, harassment, and slander.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/659676127480223

We strongly advise the public to exercise caution when encountering harmful or anonymous content and stand against any form of harassment and discrimination.

Let’s continue promoting a safe, respectful, and uplifting cosplay community.
